Cellphones ranked as most hated invention

Nearly one in three (30%) adults say that the cell phone is the invention they most hate but cannot live without. The cell phone narrowly beat the alarm clock (25%) and television (23%) for the distinction in the survey, which gauges Americans’ attitudes toward invention. Shaving razors, microwaves, coffee pots, computers and vacuum cleaners were also cited as essential, yet despised, inventions.
